She has about 30 offers so far, I don't know where App stands but has offers from Clemson, V Tech, Marquette - the offers range from small to medium schools it seems, like Elon offered, also what kinds of offers I am not sure if all are scholarships or what that status is - she got offers as a Sophomore at least. She plays AAU for Team Curry - this summer will be her move up in status year most likely. App is probably on the table but bigger schools are in the way.
We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

Re: New WBB coach: Alaura Sharp
See there are a couple signees coming in. My daughter mentioned that their high school (N Davidson) record holder for points was coming to App. Seen at least 1 other as well.

Dang, lot of players in the group that seem to be able to put up some numbers. Looking forward to seeing them in the black and gold.

Re: New WBB coach: Alaura Sharp
I saw Sears play against Charlotte Catholic a 4-A finalist with 2 D-1 signees. She was un stoppable. (And I’m a Catholic homer) would be the best recruit ever in our basketball historyasu2000 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2024 3:25 pmShe has about 30 offers so far, I don't know where App stands but has offers from Clemson, V Tech, Marquette - the offers range from small to medium schools it seems, like Elon offered, also what kinds of offers I am not sure if all are scholarships or what that status is - she got offers as a Sophomore at least.

Re: New WBB coach: Alaura Sharp
In her interview on the BGP she mentioned her success recruiting foreign players to PC and she’d tap into that pipeline at App too.
It’s a successful play in golf and tennis across the nation and I’d assume we’ll see more of this in basketball across the nation too.

Re: New WBB coach: Alaura Sharp
Some schools have tapped that market with success. If they are real difference makers , why not ?

Re: New WBB coach: Alaura Sharp
On the men's side, European players are much more fundamentally sound in the game of bball

It's probably because they're allowed to smoke cigarettes on the bench over there.BambooRdApp wrote: ↑Wed May 01, 2024 10:49 amOn the men's side, European players are much more fundamentally sound in the game of bball
Wait...maybe that's just in the Balkans...?

Re: New WBB coach: Alaura Sharp
Coach Sharp has been really busy in the transfer portal and the JUCO ranks.

This in addition to the previous post about the international players and other transfers. She is retooling the WBB squad.
